I purchased an Olympus OMD E-M1 mirrorless Micro 4/3 system camera and lenses a couple of months ago to use on an upcoming trip, as a light-weight alternative to my full frame Nikon gear. In the process of checking out the capabilities of the E-M1 I ran a series of tests comparing it to the Nikon D800. While this may be a rather lop-sided comparison, the E-M1 held up very well and has become a favorite of mine. The results of the testing (not rigorous, but tailored to my needs) is at http://afpphoto.com/writings/tests-2/olympus-e-m1/ .
